In 1999 Stevenson et al. reported the third most abundant fullerene that can be prepared in an arc reactor, Sc3N@Ih-C80. 1 The discovery of the trimetallic nitride endohedral fullerene (TNT) family includes the non-IPR Sc3N@D3-C68, 2 the IPR Sc3N@D3h-C78 3 and the Sc3N@D5h-C80 isomer, 4,5 all containing the same encapsulated triscandium nitride cluster inside. It is convenient that four different and interesting compounds are obtained in a single arcing experiment but their efficient separation presents many challenges. Several methods to isolate endohedral fullerenes have been reported, but none of them result in the efficient purification of Sc3N@D5h-C80. Taking advantage of the differences in the oxidation/reduction potentials of the members of the Sc3N@C2n (n = 34, 39, 40) family, we recently reported a selective chemical oxidation method that allows the isolation of pure Sc3N@Ih-C80 and Sc3N@C78, leaving a mixture of Sc3N@D5h-C80 and Sc3N@C68. 15
